Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint disease characterized by inflammation and progressive cartilage degradation. Chondrocyte apoptosis is the most common pathological feature of OA. Interleukin-1β (IL-1β), a major inflammatory cytokine that promotes cartilage degradation in OA, often stimulates primary human chondrocytes in vitro to establish an in vitro OA model. Moreover, IL-1β is involved in OA pathogenesis by stimulating the phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt and mitogen-activated protein kinases pathways. The G-protein-coupled receptor, cc chemokine receptor 10 (CCR10), plays a vital role in the occurrence and development of various malignant tumors. However, the mechanism underlying the role of CCR10 in the pathogenesis of OA remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the protective effect of CCR10 on IL-1β-stimulated CHON-001 cells and elucidate the underlying mechanism. METHODS The CHON-001 cells were transfected with a control small interfering RNA (siRNA) or CCR10-siRNA for 24 h, and stimulated with 10 ng/mL IL-1β for 12 h to construct an OA model in vitro. The levels of CCR10, cleaved-caspase-3, MMP-3, MMP-13, Collagen II, Aggrecan, p-PI3K, PI3K, p-Akt, Akt, phosphorylated-mammalian target of rapamycin (p-mTOR), and mTOR were detected using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. Viability, cytotoxicity, and apoptosis of CHON-001 cells were assessed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay, lactate dehydrogenase assay (LDH), and flow cytometry analysis, respectively. Inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8) were assessed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Level of CCR10 was substantially higher in the IL-1β-stimulated CHON-001 cells than that in the control group, whereas CCR10 was down-regulated in the CCR10-siRNA transfected CHON-001 cells compared to that in the control-siRNA group. Notably, CCR10 inhibition alleviated IL-1β-induced inflammatory injury in the CHON-001 cells, as verified by enhanced cell viability, inhibited LDH release, reduced apoptotic cells, and cleaved-caspase-3 expression. Meanwhile, IL-1β induced the release of tumor necrosis factor alpha, IL-6, and IL-8, increase of MMP-3 and MMP-13, and decrease of Collagen II and Aggrecan in the CHON-001 cells, which were reversed by CCR10-siRNA. However, these effects were reversed upon PI3K agonist 740Y-P treatment. Further, IL-1β-induced PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway activation was inhibited by CCR10-siRNA, which was increased by 740Y-P treatment. CONCLUSION Inhibition of CCR10 alleviates IL-1β-induced chondrocytes injury via PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway inhibition, suggesting that CCR10 might be a promising target for novel OA therapeutic strategies.

OA susceptibility in mice is partially mediated by the gut microbiome, is transferrable via microbiome transplantation and is associated with immunophenotype changes. Ann Rheum Dis 2024; 83:382-393. [PMID: 37979958 PMCID: PMC10922159 DOI: 10.1136/ard-2023-224907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/20/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Murphy Roths Large (MRL)/MpJ 'superhealer' mouse strain is protected from post-traumatic osteoarthritis (OA), although no studies have evaluated the microbiome in the context of this protection. This study characterised microbiome differences between MRL and wild-type mice, evaluated microbiome transplantation and OA and investigated microbiome-associated immunophenotypes. METHODS Cecal material from mixed sex C57BL6/J (B6) or female MRL/MpJ (MRL) was transplanted into B6 and MRL mice, then OA was induced by disruption of the medial meniscus surgery (DMM). In other experiments, transplantation was performed after DMM and transplantation was performed into germ-free mice. Transplanted mice were bred through F2. OARSI, synovitis and osteophyte scores were determined blindly 8 weeks after DMM. 16S microbiome sequencing was performed and metagenomic function was imputed. Immunophenotypes were determined using mass cytometry. RESULTS MRL-into-B6 transplant prior to DMM showed reduced OA histopathology (OARSI score 70% lower transplant vs B6 control), synovitis (60% reduction) and osteophyte scores (30% reduction) 8 weeks after DMM. When performed 48 hours after DMM, MRL-into-B6 transplant improved OA outcomes but not when performed 1-2 weeks after DMM. Protection was seen in F1 (60% reduction) and F2 progeny (30% reduction). Several cecal microbiome clades were correlated with either better (eg, Lactobacillus, R=-0.32, p=0.02) or worse (eg, Rikenellaceae, R=0.43, p=0.001) OA outcomes. Baseline immunophenotypes associated with MRL-into-B6 transplants and MRL included reduced double-negative T cells and increased CD25+CD4+ T cells. CONCLUSION The gut microbiome is responsible in part for OA protection in MRL mice and is transferrable by microbiome transplantation. Transplantation induces resting systemic immunophenotyping changes that correlate with OA protection.

The Complex Interplay between the Gut Microbiome and Osteoarthritis: A Systematic Review on Potential Correlations and Therapeutic Approaches. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 25:143. [PMID: 38203314 PMCID: PMC10778637 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25010143] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2023] [Revised: 12/18/2023] [Accepted: 12/20/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
The objective of this review is to systematically analyze the potential correlation between gut microbiota and osteoarthritis (OA) as well as to evaluate the feasibility of microbiota-targeted therapies for treating OA. Studies conducted from October 2013 to October 2023 were identified via a search on electronic databases such as PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus, following established PRISMA statement standards. Two reviewers independently screened, assessed, and extracted relevant data, and then they graded the studies using the ROBINS I tool for non-randomized interventions studies and SYRCLE's risk-of-bias tool for animal studies. A search through 370 studies yielded 38 studies (24 preclinical and 14 clinical) that were included. In vivo research has predominantly concentrated on modifying the gut microbiota microenvironment, using dietary supplements, probiotics, and prebiotics to modify the OA status. Lactobacilli are the most thoroughly examined with Lactobacillus acidophilus found to effectively reduce cartilage damage, inflammatory factors, and pain. Additionally, Lactobacillus M5 inhibits the development of OA by preventing high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity and protecting cartilage from damage. Although there are limited clinical studies, certain compositions of intestinal microbiota may be associated with onset and progression of OA, while others are linked to pain reduction in OA patients. Based on preclinical studies, there is evidence to suggest that the gut microbiota could play a significant role in the development and progression of OA. However, due to the scarcity of clinical studies, the exact mechanism linking the gut microbiota and OA remains unclear. Further research is necessary to evaluate specific gut microbiota compositions, potential pathogens, and their corresponding signaling pathways that contribute to the onset and progression of OA. This will help to validate the potential of targeting gut microbiota for treating OA patients.

Front Immunol 2023; 14:1150572. [PMID: 37180142 PMCID: PMC10167637 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1150572] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives The aim of this systematic review was to summarize the available literature on gut microbiome (GMB) and osteoarthritis (OA), analyze the correlation between GMB and OA, and explore potential underlying mechanisms. Methods A systematic search of the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and Web of Science with the keywords "Gut Microbiome" and "Osteoarthritis" was conducted to identify the human and animal studies exploring the association between GMB and OA. The retrieval time range was from the database inception to July 31, 2022. Studies reported the other arthritic diseases without OA, reviews, and studies focused on the microbiome in other parts of the body with OA, such as oral or skin, were excluded. The included studies were mainly reviewed for GMB composition, OA severity, inflammatory factors, and intestinal permeability. Results There were 31 studies published met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed, including 10 human studies and 21 animal studies. Human and animal studies have reached a consistent conclusion that GMB dysbiosis could aggravate OA. In addition, several studies have found that alterations of GMB composition can increase intestinal permeability and serum levels of inflammatory factors, while regulating GMB can alleviate the changes. Owing to the susceptibility of GMB to internal and external environments, genetics, and geography, the included studies were not consistent in GMB composition analysis. Conclusion There is a lack of high-quality studies evaluating the effects of GMB on OA. Available evidence indicated that GMB dysbiosis aggravated OA through activating the immune response and subsequent induction of inflammation. Future studies should focus on more prospective, cohort studies combined with multi-omics to further clarify the correlation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteoarthritis (OA) started to be associated to shifted microbiota composition recently. This systematic review aims to elucidate if there is a common microbiota composition linked with OA between different studies. METHODS We screened PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Cochrane databases up to July 26th 2021 to identify original studies in which microbiome was assessed from OA individuals, both in human and laboratory animals' studies. Bacteria associated with OA were summarized to find common patterns between the studies. RESULTS We identified 37 original studies where the microbiota composition was assessed in OA subjects. We identified some bacteria (Clostridium, Streptococcus, Bacteroides and Firmicutes) that were reported to be upregulated in OA subjects, whereas Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium longum were associated with improved OA outcomes. The heterogeneity of sampling and analysis methods, different taxonomical levels reported and the lack of healthy controls in several studies made it difficult to compare the studies and reach conclusions about a potential causal link. CONCLUSIONS The current study demonstrated that some bacteria were identified as regulators of OA. Future works following standardized methodologies with more proper controls are needed to elucidate our understanding of the role of the microbiota in OA pathogenesis and progress towards new treatments.

Abstract
Osteoporosis and osteoarthritis account for the leading causes of musculoskeletal dysfunction in older adults. Senescent chondrocyte overburden, inflammation, oxidative stress, subcellular organelle dysfunction, and genomic instability are prominent features of these age-mediated skeletal diseases. Age-related intestinal disorders and gut dysbiosis contribute to host tissue inflammation and oxidative stress by affecting host immune responses and cell metabolism. Dysregulation of gut microflora correlates with development of osteoarthritis and osteoporosis in humans and rodents. Intestinal microorganisms produce metabolites, including short-chain fatty acids, bile acids, trimethylamine N-oxide, and liposaccharides, affecting mitochondrial function, metabolism, biogenesis, autophagy, and redox reactions in chondrocytes and bone cells to regulate joint and bone tissue homeostasis. Modulating the abundance of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, or the ratio of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes, in the gut microenvironment by probiotics or fecal microbiota transplantation is advantageous to suppress age-induced chronic inflammation and oxidative damage in musculoskeletal tissue. Supplementation with gut microbiota-derived metabolites potentially slows down development of osteoarthritis and osteoporosis. This review provides latest molecular and cellular insights into the biological significance of gut microorganisms and primary and secondary metabolites important to cartilage and bone integrity. It further highlights treatment options with probiotics or metabolites for modulating the progression of these two common skeletal disorders.

Abstract
Orthopaedic biomechanics and bioengineering is a founding discipline of biomedical engineering that focuses on the effects of mechanical stress and strain on musculoskeletal tissues during growth, function and repair. In the past decade the gut microbiome has emerged as a contributor to disease processes throughout the body, but only recently has been shown to influence orthopaedic biomechanics. Here I review emergent findings showing that the gut microbiome can regulate important aspects of the musculoskeletal system including growth and development; tissue failure and disease; and orthopaedic surgery. These early findings suggest that the microbiome may help answer questions in orthopaedic biomechanics that are not well addressed by current interventions, and highlights the promise of the emerging field of "Musculoskeletal Microbiology".
